The global soft touch polyurethane coatings industry is set to experience significant growth, driven by the rising sales of consumer electronics and automobiles. According to FMI, the market is projected to reach a valuation of USD 17,429 million by 2033, reflecting a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9% from 2023 to 2033. This expansion underscores the increasing demand for coatings that enhance tactile experiences and provide superior aesthetic appeal in various applications, highlighting the industry’s dynamic role in the evolving landscape of consumer and automotive products.
Mobile phones and laptops also benefit from their scratch resistance and improved appearance. Due to characteristics such as aging resistance, scratch resistance, and abrasion resistance, soft-touch polyurethane coatings are becoming more popular with high-quality covers. A combination of increased electronics production in various countries and strict regulations targeting VOC emissions has pushed up emissions. Luxury and rich interiors are becoming increasingly popular among car enthusiasts which will further create a market for soft touch polyurethane coating in the market.
SAMR (State Administration for Market Regulation) and the Standardization Administration of the People’s Republic of China have developed new standards to limit the use of VOCs and a wide range of chemicals in adhesive manufacturing. ICEA estimated that there will be 829 million smartphone users in India by 2022. Hence, smartphones would be better protected, resulting in increased demand for cases and covers, thereby driving demand for soft touch polyurethane coatings.
